Update to My Ebyline Application

So, as I told in in my previous post, I applied to Ebyline. I presented them with links to published work, my resume and a load of other information about my professional writing history. Here is the email I received a few days later:

Thank you for applying to Ebyline.  As part of our review process, we would like to confirm additional information about you.

Did an Editor that you currently work with refer you to Ebyline? If so, please tell us their name and which publication they work for.

If you were not invited to use Ebyline by an Ebyline Editor, please provide additional information about your experience including:

* Links or attachments for 3-5 paid clips
* Resume/CV that highlights your previous journalism work experience
* other details you can provide about yourself (i.e. Are you a full-time freelance journalist? What beats/topics do you cover? What publications have you written for?)

Please respond to this email and attach your additional information.

Thanks,
The Ebyline Team

Umm, huh? I already spent 30 minutes submitting all of this information a few days ago. Did they have a glitch in their system? I really don't feel like doing it again. Has anyone else had this problem?
